Saddle Up Stables

Saddle Up Stables brings the authentic Western experience to life for families visiting Cheyenne. This welcoming stable offers everything from first-time pony rides to guided trail rides through Wyoming's beautiful landscapes, making it perfect for introducing children to horseback riding or building skills for young equestrians already in the saddle.

• ✓Guided trail rides through scenic Wyoming terrain
• ✓Age-appropriate horseback riding lessons for all skill levels
• ✓Hands-on horse care experiences and grooming sessions
• ✓Gentle horses perfect for nervous first-time riders
• ✓Long operating hours (7 AM-8 PM daily) for scheduling flexibility

1. 1.Call ahead to book lessons or trail rides, especially on weekends, as spots fill up quickly during peak times
2. 2.Wear closed-toe shoes (boots are ideal) and long pants to protect little legs from saddle chafing
3. 3.Arrive 15-20 minutes early to allow nervous first-timers to meet their horse and get comfortable before mounting
4. 4.Bring sunscreen and hats for trail rides,Wyoming sun is intense and there's limited shade on the trails
5. 5.Ask about their horse care demonstrations where kids can learn about grooming and feeding

Early morning visits (7:00-9:00 AM) offer cooler temperatures and calmer horses, ideal for beginners. Weekdays are less crowded than weekends. Spring and fall provide the most comfortable weather for trail riding, avoiding summer's intense heat.

Pricing varies by activity type (lessons vs. trail rides), so contact the stable directly for current rates. Ample parking is available on-site, and restroom facilities are provided at the stable.

Open year-round, though winter riding requires extra layers. Spring through fall offers the most pleasant weather conditions. Summer evenings are particularly magical for trail rides with extended daylight hours.

Head to Taco John's or Arby's on nearby Dell Range Boulevard for quick, kid-friendly meals after working up an appetite in the saddle.
